Investigation of Acoustomagnetoelectric Effect in Bandgap Graphene by the Boltzmann Transport Equation

We study the acoustomagnetoelectric (AME) effect in two-dimensional graphene with an energy bandgap using the semiclassical Boltzmann transport equation within the hypersound regime, (where represents the acoustic wavenumber and is the mean free path of the electron). The Boltzmann transport equation and other relevant equations were solved analytically to obtain an expression for the AME current density, consisting of longitudinal and Hall components. Our numerical results indicate that both components of the AME current densities display oscillatory behaviour. Furthermore, geometric resonances and Weiss oscillations were each defined using the relationship between the current density and Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) frequency and the inverse of the applied magnetic field, respectively. Our results show that the AME current density of bandgap graphene, which can be controlled to suit a particular electronic device application, is smaller than that of (gapless) graphene and is therefore, more suited for nanophotonic device applications.

Effects of irradiation on superconducting properties of small-grained MgB_(2) thin films

We investigate the effect of ion irradiation on MgB_(2) thin films with small grains of approximately 122 nm and 140 nm.The flux pinning by grain boundaries is insignificant in the pristine MgB_(2) films due to good inter-grain connectivity,but is significantly improved after 120-keV Mn-ion irradiation.The scaling behavior of the flux pinning force density for the ion-irradiated MgB_(2) thin films with nanoscale grains demonstrates the predominance of pinning by grain boundaries,in contrast to the single-crystalline MgB_(2) films where normal point pinning was dominant after low-energy ion irradiation.These results suggest that irradiation-induced defects can accumulate near the grain boundaries in metallic MgB_(2) superconductors.

Investigation on the Flow Behavior of Side Channel Pumps Based on Vortex Identification

The momentum flow exchange between the impeller and side channel produces highly turbulent flows in side channel pumps.The turbulent flows feature complex patterns of vortex structures that are partly responsible for the dissipation of energy losses and unsteady pressure pulsations.The concept of turbulent flows in side channel pumps requires a reliable vortex identification criterion to capture and predict the effects of the vortex structures on the performance.For this reason,the current study presents the application of the new Ω-criterion to a side channel pump model in comparison with other traditional methods such as Qand λ2 criteria.The 3D flow fields of the pump were obtained through unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS)simulations.Comparative studies showed that the Ω-criterion identifies the vortex of different intensities with a standard threshold,Ω=0.52.The Q and λ2 criteria required different thresholds to capture vortex of different intensities thus leads to subjective errors.Comparing theΩ-criterion intensity on different planes with the entropy losses and pressure pulsation,the longitudinal vortex plays an important role in the momentum exchange development which increases the head performance of the pump.However,the rate of exchange is impeded by the axial and radial vortices restricted in the impeller.Therefore,the impeller generates the highest entropy loss and pressure pulsation intensities which lower the output efficiency.Finally,the findings provide a fundamental background to the morphology of the vortex structures in the turbulent flows which can be dependent upon for efficiency improvement of side channel pumps.

Alternative Approach to Time Evaluation of Schrodinger Wave Functions

Time evaluation of wave functions for any quantum mechanical system/particle is essential nevertheless quantum mechanical counterpart of the time dependant classical wave equation does simply not appear. Epistemologically and ontologically considered time dependant momentum operator is initially defined and an Alternative Time Dependant Schrodinger Wave Equation (ATDSWE) is plainly derived. Consequent equation is primarily solved for the free particles, in a closed system, signifying a good agreement with the outcomes of the ordinary TDSWE. Free particle solution interestingly goes further possibly tracing some signs of new pathways to resolve the mysterious quantum world.

Theoretical and Experimental Study of a Numerical Aperture for Multimode PCS Fiber Optics Using an Imaging Technique

We study theoretically and experimentally the properties of numerical aperture(NA)of multimode graded-index plastic core silica(PCS)fibers by using an image technique.A He-Ne laser at wavelength 632.8 nm and output power 1 mW is used as the transmitter light source.The output beam images and intensity profiles of an optical fiber are investigated by using an imaging technique.The laser beam profiles captured by a sensitive digital Nikon camera are processed and analyzed by using a Gaussian intensity distribution in a 2D graph.A MathCAD 14 program is used for converting the image of the laser output beam into data.The theoretical and experimental values of the numerical aperture for the used optical fiber in this study are found to be 0.5 and 0.4924,respectively.The theoretical value of V-number is also calculated to be approximately 2482.

Ground Rotation Band of a 6-Boson System

A 6-boson system has been qualitatively studied based on symmetry consideration. Emphasis is placed on the ground rotation band based on the octahedron structure. In this band the L = 1 , 2, and 3 states are found to be prohibited by symmetry. Therefore there is a gap to hinder the rotational excitation of the ground state.

Crossover from a Fractal Lattice to an Euclidean Lattice for the Thermodynamic Properties of a Four-Spin Interaction Ising Model

We study how thermodynamic properties of the four-spin interaction Ising model on a family of Sierpinski carpets fractals cross over to that of the Ising model on square lattice with four-spin interaction in half of the square faces.The exact free energy f_(s) for the square model and f_(j) for the fractals are obtained in a closed form and found to be analytic in temperature.The free energy varies smoothly with the geometrical parameter b(which labels each member of the fractal family)and for large b the difference between f_(s) and f_(j) is asymptotically proportional to 1/b^(2).

Higher Electric Multipole Moments for Some Polyatomic Molecules from Accurate SCF Calculations

Higher electric multipole moments for the ground-state electronic configuration of some polyatomicmolecules, i.e. CH4, NH3, H2O, were calculated from SCF-HFR wavefunctions using Slater-type orbital basis sets.The calculated results for electric multipole moments of these molecules are in good agreement with the theoretical andexperimental ones.

A Coherent View on Entropy

Informational entropy is often identified as physical entropy. This is surprising because the two quantities are differently defined and furthermore the former is a subjective quantity while the latter is an objective one. We describe the problems and then present a possible view that reconciles the two entropies. Informational entropy of a system is interpreted as physical entropy of a whole composed of both the system and “memories” containing information about the system.

Effective Mass SchrSdinger Equation via Point Canonical Transformation

Effective Mass Dirac-Morse Problem with any κ-value

The Dirac-Morse problem is investigated within the framework of an approximation to the term proportional to 1/r^2 in the view of the position-dependent mass formalism. The energy eigenvalues and corresponding wave functions are obtained by using the parametric generalization of the Nikiforov-Uvarov method for any R-value. We also study the approximate energy eigenvalues, and the corresponding wave functions in the case of the constant-mass for pseudospin, and spin cases, respectively.

Effects of annealing temperature and neodymium concentration on structural and photoluminescence properties of Nd^(3+)-doped Y_(2)O_(3)-SiO_(2) powders

We report the structural and photoluminescence(PL) properties of Nd^(3+)-doped Y_(2)O_(3)-SiO_(2) powders(Y_(2)O_(3)-SiO_(2):Nd^(3+)) as functions of annealing temperature and Nd^(3+) ion doping concentration.Y_(2)O_(3)-SiO_(2):Nd^(3+)powders were prepared using the high-energy ball-milling(HEBM) method,and their structural and PL properties were investigated using X-ray diffraction(XRD),Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) spectroscopy,and PL spectroscopy.The XRD results reveal a cubic phase without impurities,and the peak broadening decreases with an increase in annealing temperature due to the increase in the crystallite size.The PL emission intensity increases with an increase in annealing temperature.The highest PL emission intensity is observed for the 300-min milled mixture annealed at 1000℃ for 1 h with a Nd^(3+) concentration of 1 mol%.The PL peaks excited by 800 nm radiation were detected,centered at 1080 nm(^(4)F_(3/2)→^(4)I_(11/2)) and 1350 nm(^(4)F_(3/2)→^(4)I_(13/2)).

Characteristic evaluation on spray-deposited WFTO thin films as a function of W doping ratio

Abstract In this work, F and F ＋ W simultaneously doped SnO2 highly transparent conducting thin films were depos- ited on glass substrates at （500 4± 5） ℃ temperature by the spray pyrolysis method. Microstructural, morphological, electrical and optical properties of FrO films were investi- gated as a function of tungsten （W） doping, in the range from 0 to 5 at%. X-ray diffraction patterns show that the films exhibit a tetragonal cassiterite structure and （200） preferen- tial orientation of FTO film, and the relative strength of these peaks changes with altering the W doping ratio. The pre- ferred growth of （211） changed to （200） plane with 2 at% W doping level and 3 at% W-doped film had （200） orientation and with further doping, this changed to （110） orientation. The scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy images of the films indicate that the films are made up of dense small particles of a pyramidal shape and have a smooth surface. It was observed that the surface morphology of the films did not change much when the W element was inserted to the FrO structure. It was found that the sheet resistance values of the films varied with W doping ratio, and 2 at% W-doped FTO thin film exhibited the lowest values of sheet resistance （1.12Ω）. Also, the highest figure of merit, infrared reflectivity and optical band gap values werecalculated for 2 at% W-doped FTO film as 50.9× 10-2 Ω-1, 98.82 % and 4.13 eV, respectively. These results make the films an effective candidate for usage in many optoelectronic applications and photo-thermal conversion of solar energy.

Exact Solutions of the Morse-like Potential,Step-Up and Step-Down Operators via Laplace Transform Approach

We intend to realize the step-up and step-down operators of the potential V (x) = V1 e 2βx+V2 e βx. It is found that these operators satisfy the commutation relations for the SU(2) group. We find the eigenfunctions and the eigenvalues of the potential by using the Laplace transform approach to study the Lie algebra satisfied the ladder operators of the potential under consideration. Our results are similar to the ones obtained for the Morse potential (β→β).
